Integral membrane protein 2A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ITM2A gene.[1][2][3][4]
Function
The protein encoded by this gene is involved in osteo- and chondrogenic cellular differentiation (the cells which are responsible for the development of bone and cartilage respectively).[2]
ITM2A is also involved in activation of T-cells in the immune system[5] and in myocyte differentiation.[6]
